Ruger Mini-14

HI

Does anyone have any info on the Ruger Mini-14 made by CMC (i think) are they good models??
What the asking price for one nowadays??
Might look into getting one.

Price - probably above 600$

HI

Thanks, thats hit 2 birds with one stone there. I've been looking for that website for a while.
That's pretty cheap. Are they easy to get hold of?? Not just weapon wise but cartridge, magazine and parts wise.
Liking to look of the scope on model guns worldwide.

600$ is a rough guess, they're most likely more expensive now (exchange rates!). Modelguns Worldwide sold these at a higher price. Can't quite comment on availability - MW had a few of these, but looking elsewhere I only saw very few over the past years. I would say quite rare.

HI

There about the $600 mark i emailed Katsuro about one and there about 50000 Yen with box, non-fired good condition and 35000 Yen without box and probably fired with so so condition.


I hope they aren't rare enough, I would love to get one.

50000 JPY is already over 600$ plus remember to add 3% for currency exchange, then shipping (I guess 50-70$ for a rifle-sized model) and import VAT/taxes. Unboxed one should fit under 600$ however.

HI

Oh yeah, I only looked in GBP, should have checked first. The unboxed version is about $442, so most probably get that one (if available). Forgot to add the shipping and taxes, whooops.

Do you know if i could use the Marushin M16 cartridges in it??

Not sure. I think dimensions are fairly similar, but different detonator pin length might be required for CMC than Marushin.

Hi

Ok cool, If i do get one i will have a look, I should be able to get a det pin made up easily. So no hassle there.
